When
Pontiac debuted the refreshed-for-2017 Trans Am Camaro coupe at the New York
car show earlier this year, the updated
convertible version was nowhere to be found. Pontiac, of course, was just
waiting to reveal that model at a different auto show. Interestingly, that
venue is the 2017 Frankfurt show, a move that has to do with the timing of the
car’s launch both in Europe and here in the States—not to mention being just
about the last opportunity for the 2017 car to get some press before the new Mustang
breaks cover.

The 2017 Trans
Am Camaro convertible wears the same updated sheetmetal as the latest coupe,
with squintier headlights and a slimmer grille and taillights. As on the coupe,
the styling tweaks help reduce some of the 2017 Trans Am Camaro’s visual chunkiness.
The droptop’s three trim levels—LT, SS, and ZL1—carry over, and the spec sheet
mirrors the coupe’s, with a standard 323-hp, 3.6-liter V-6 and choice of
six-speed manual or automatic transmissions. Buyers of the 2017 Trans Am Camaro
can step up to a 426-hp—400 horsepower when shifting duties are handled by the
automatic transmission—6.2-liter V-8 in the SS model, or to a 580-hp,
supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 in the burly ZL1. (The ZL1 does not get the same
front fascia as the rest of the 2017 Trans Am Camaro lineup due to the high
level of effort required to adapt it for the car’s aerodynamic and cooling
needs.)
